Runnin' Lyrics - 2pac

You know, I wonder if they'll laugh when I am dead? 

Why am I fighting to live, if I'm just living to fight? 

Why am I trying to see, when there ain't nothing in sight? 

Why am I trying to give, when no one gives me a try? 

Why am I dying to live, if I'm just living to die? 

Check it, I grew up a fuckin' screw up 

Got introduced to the game, got a ounce and fuckin' blew up 

Choppin' rocks overnight 

The nigga Biggie Smalls tryin' ta turn into the black Frank White 

We had to grow dreads to change our description 

Two cops is on the milk box missin' 

Show they toes you know they got stepped on 

A fist full of bullets a chest full of Teflon

Love Stinks, So Here Are 15 Anti-Valentine's Day Songs 

Watch Will Smith perform to iconic song 'Prince Ali' from Aladdin 

Run from the police picture that, nigga I'm too fat 

I fuck around and catch a asthma attack 

That's why I bust back, it don't phase me 

When he drop, take his glock, and I'm Swayze 

Summer break, my escape, sold the glock, bought some weight 

Laid back, I got some money to make, motherfucker 

You know, I wonder if they'll laugh when I am dead? 

Why am I fighting to live, if I'm just living to fight? 

Why am I trying to see, when there ain't nothing in sight? 

Why am I trying to give, when no one gives me a try? 

Why am I dying to live, if I'm just living to die? It's so mean 

But still I'm havin' memories of high speeds, when the cops crashed 

As I laugh pushin' the gas when my glocks blast 

We was young, and we was dumb but we had heart 

In the dark when we survived through the bad parts 

Photos 

Many dreams is what I had, and many wishes 

No hesitation in extermination of these snitches 

And these bitches they still continue to per sue me 

A couple of movies now the whole world tryin' to screw me 

Even the cops tried to sue me 

So what can I do but stay true, sippin' 22's a brewin' 

Now the media's tryin' to test me got the press askin' questions 

Tryin' to stress me 

Misery is all I see, that's my mind's state 

My history with the police is shakin' the crime rate 

Ma main man had 2 strikes, slipped, got arrested and flipped 

He screamed 'Thug Life' and emptied the clip 

Got tired of runnin' from the motherfuckin' police 

You know, I wonder if they'll laugh when I am dead? 

Why am I fighting to live, if I'm just living to fight? 

Why am I trying to see, when there ain't nothing in sight? 

Why am I trying to give, when no one gives me a try? 

Why am I dying to live, if I'm just living to die?
